Default Re: PC.com Chips Arrived: Pics!

Before I got my chips, I was also under the impression, from pictures, that the inlay was some sort of sticker. However, it is not. It is 'painted' on the chips. And it seems to be very solid. I have no worries about it wearing off. Well, maybe after 25 years with heavy use or something.

I love my new chips and I recommend anyone who is thinking about buying a set to do it. They are great and you won't regret it.

I wish I had waited to post the pictures after I added the mineral oil. Really makes a noticable difference. Colors on the chips really brighten up.

Alrighty then. This just never gets old for me. I have almost finished oiling all of the chips (only 100 whites left), and in these pictures you can really see the difference it makes. Notice the difference in the edgespot colors on the whites.

Your chips look really great,I prefered the pre-oiled look more though.
After seeing a few custon PC.com orders I am really considering splashing out and selling my crystal oyster chipco's.If I can just convince my wife of this plan I might be in business. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Nice chips and hat! I like the green and red most.

What kind of limits are your game? I'm in Van Nuys and have a cash game every Sunday.

FYI - Baby oil is mineral oil with fragrance added. I bet your chips smell nice though.
